INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS The SUITMATE Swimsuit Water Extractor has been designed and manufactured with safety as the primary consideration. Therefore, it is important that the unit be installed correctly. It is also important that the installation comply with all local building codes and regulations. Please consult your local licensed plumbing and electrical engineers or contractors about your installation. Read the entire INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS before beginning your installation. Remember: DO IT RIGHT and DO IT SAFE! PROPER LOCATION FOR THE SUITMATE UNIT Following is a list of factors to consider in determining a location for the SUITMATE unit. 1) The unit should be located in an area that is near where people remove and rinse out their swimsuits. 2) The unit should NOT be located in a cluttered area or where it is exposed to direct shower water or water hose down. 3) The unit should be mounted on a wall structure that will support the unit s approximate 55 pounds (25kg) hanging weight plus the added weight or pressure of people leaning on the unit. Consult the PROPER WALL MOUNTING section of these instructions to determine an appropriate location. 4) There should be a means to dispose of the wastewater from the unit. Consult the PROPER DRAINAGE section of these instructions (page 5) to determine an appropriate location. 5) The unit should be wired to a 115-V(AC) 20-Amp 60-Hz dedicated circuit. Consult the PROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS section of these instructions (page 5) to determine proper location. PROPER WALL MOUNTING OF THE SUITMATE UNIT The SUITMATE unit should be mounted to the wall with the Wall Mount Bracket that is provided with the unit. The UTILITIES LOCATION DIAGRAM (page 8) shows the recommended location for the mounting holes, the electrical service, and the wastewater outlet (if utilized). The Wall Mount Bracket must be secured to a wall stud, or to concrete block or cinder block wall. WARNING! Anchors in drywall are not sufficient to mount the SUITMATE unit. TO WALL CHECK WITH LEVEL USE APPROPRIATE FASTENERS FOR YOUR APPLICATION Locating and Securing the Wall Mount Bracket to the Wall The suggested height from the floor to the top of the SUITMATE unit is 42 inches (107cm). At least an additional 10 inches (25.5cm) of clearance above the SUITMATE unit is needed for the opening and closing of the lid. The upper center hole of the Wall Mount Bracket should be 38 +/- 1/16 inches (96.5cm +/- 2mm) from the floor. The top of the Wall Sign should be 60 +/- 1/16 inches (152.5cm +/- 2mm) above the floor and centered over the SUITMATE unit. Determine a location on the wall that provides adequate clearance, a strong and secure place for the Wall Mount Bracket as well as easy access to electrical and drainage connections. WARNING! The Wall Mount Bracket must be level after it is secured to the wall. 2017 Extractor Corporation 3
To secure the Wall Mount Bracket, center the bracket at the desired location and mark the locations of the two center holes. Secure the Wall Mount Bracket at the center holes using fasteners appropriate for your conditions. All fasteners must be capable of supporting 55 pounds (25kg) in addition to the added weight or pressure of people leaning on the unit. Make certain the Wall Mount Bracket is level. Next secure the outer holes of the Wall Mount Bracket to the structure using fasteners appropriate to your conditions. After the bracket has been properly anchored to the wall and the electrical and drainage requirements have been allowed for, the SUITMATE unit is ready to be mounted to the wall. Mounting the SUITMATE Unit to the Wall Remove the SUITMATE unit from its shipping box. Remove and discard the packaging material that is protecting the SUITMATE unit, including the material protecting the SUITMATE motor. The upper back lip of the SUITMATE unit should be lowered down and centered on the Wall Mount Bracket. After the unit is centered, push down on the back of the unit to make certain that it is securely wedged onto the bracket. Make certain the unit is level. If it is not level, remove the unit, adjust the Wall Mount Bracket and re-hang the unit. A level installation is necessary to minimize vibration and insure proper drainage of wastewater. Finish securing the unit to the wall using appropriate fasteners and anchors on the lower mounting channel at the bottom rear of the unit. This will prevent the unit from being lifted from the bracket or being moved. Note: Several holes in the lower mounting bracket may be obstructed by the GFCI Cover.

PROPER DRAINAGE FOR THE SUITMATE UNIT Note: Strictly follow all applicable local plumbing codes and regulations. TO A FLOOR DRAIN Drainage of the wastewater to a floor drain should be done ONLY in an area where the floor is normally wet. DO NOT drain water across a floor where people do not expect to encounter a wet and slippery condition. The SUITMATE unit comes with a short flexible drain extension tube connected with a stainless steel hose clamp to its drain tailpiece. The drain tube that comes with the unit must not be removed unless the unit is WARNING! connected to an approved wastewater outlet or the factory-supplied tube is replaced with another tube according to the following instructions. Replacing the Factory Drain Tube with a Longer Drain Tube Use a 1-1/4 inch (31.75 mm) I.D. drain tube with a smooth interior that will not crimp or collapse. Use the stainless steel hose clamp that is provided with the factory flexible floor drain extension tube to secure the replacement tube to the unit s drain tailpiece. Route the drain tube so that it is never higher than the bottom of the SUITMATE unit and always slopes down. Secure the drain tube to the wall or floor with properly sized U clamps so it cannot be maneuvered to trap wastewater. Cut off the end of the drain tube on an angle to help prevent it from being blocked by the floor, wall, or some other object. Upon completion of the installation, check to make certain that there is a free flow of water from the drain tube extension. To an Approved Sanitary Waste Line This installation should only be done in accordance with all applicable local plumbing codes and regulations. The unit s 1-1/4 inch (31.75 mm) O.D. drain tailpiece is designed for connection with standard compression type plumbing fittings. There is room inside of the stainless steel housing for the use of a standard P type plumbing connection. The waste outlet should be located in the wall behind the unit. The UTILITIES LOCATION DIAGRAM (page 8) shows the appropriate location for the waste duct. PROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS FOR THE SUITMATE UNIT Note: Strictly follow all applicable local electrical codes and regulations. The SUITMATE unit is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), that is designed to be connected to a 115-V 20-Amp 60-Hz dedicated circuit that is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker of the correct (20 Amp Maximum) size. A PLUG-IN INSTALLATION IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! The utilized circuit must be run to the SUITMATE unit s weatherproof Junction Box that contains the GFCI. A liquid tight raceway/ flexible conduit should be used from the circuit connection to the GFCI Junction Box. The UTILITIES LOCATION DIAGRAM (page 8) shows the location of the suggested area behind the unit for the entrance of the electrical raceway/flexible conduit that does not interfere with the drainage connection. WARNING! Do not route the raceway/conduit where wastewater can flow or drip on it. Remove the cover of the weatherproof Junction Box, which contains the GFCI, and remove the GFCI mounting screws. The circuit ground conductor must be connected to the green grounding screw located on the GFCI. If no ground is available on the circuit utilized, you must provide a proper ground for the SUITMATE unit. The hot and neutral leads of the power circuit should be connected to the GFCI screw terminals marked LINE. Connect the hot lead to the terminal marked HOT WIRE and the neutral lead to the terminal marked WHITE WIRE. After the correct electrical connections have been properly made, remount the GFCI using the screws previously removed. Reinstall the weatherproof Junction Box cover previously removed.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE If you are experiencing difficulty with your SUITMATE unit, please read through the following pages to see if the problem you are experiencing is described. If so, please follow the troubleshooting steps to attempt to fix the problem. If further assistance is required, please contact the factory for further recommendations at: (Telephone) 800-553-3353, (Fax) 847-742-3552, or (E-mail) info@suitmate.com. Problem: The unit is not working. There is no sound, no hum, and no noise at all when the lid is depressed. Is there power to the unit? An A.C. voltmeter set to the appropriate range can be used to check for power by measuring across the LINE side of the GFCI. The GFCI can be accessed from the bottom of the unit. If there is no power, check the wire connections to the GFCI and check the power at the main circuit breaker If there is power to the unit, check to see if the GFCI is tripped off. Attempt to reset the GFCI by pressing the TEST button followed by the RESET button. If the GFCI cannot be reset, it may be faulty and need to be replaced. If the GFCI resets and the unit still is not working, please proceed to the next troubleshooting steps. Is the Micro Switch out of adjustment? The Micro Switch is located on the backside of the unit. In order to access it, the unit will need to be removed from the wall. On the backside of the unit, there is a stainless steel box. Remove the box cover. The Micro Switch is located on the right hand side of this box and has a small wire cable attached to a copper arm. Check if the Micro Switch is engaging properly by depressing the Lid while still maintaining visual contact with the Micro Switch. Does the wire cable pull up on the arm of the Micro Switch? If the arm is moving but does not make an audible click, the Micro Switch needs to be adjusted. Please refer to Page 49 in this manual for further instruction. Does the wire cable not move at all? This could indicate a broken Actuator Screw. Please refer to Page 19 in this manual for further instruction. Is there power after the Timer? With the Lid depressed, use an A.C. voltmeter set to the appropriate range to check for power at the #4 (or COM) connection on the Timer. If there is no power at that connection point, the Timer may be faulty and need to be replaced. If the Timer is functioning properly, the power reading at the #4 (or COM) connection will last for approximately 7-8 seconds and then shut off. Problem: The unit is humming when the Lid is depressed, but the Basket is not spinning. CAUTION! Make certain the main electrical power to the unit is turned off and locked out before beginning work on the SUITMATE unit. Does the Basket spin freely? With the Lid in the open and upright position, use a piece of bar stock or a wood 2 x 4 to manually depress the two Brake Rods that come up through the Top on each side of the opening for the Basket. Simultaneously depress both Brake Rods approximately 1/2 (13mm) and attempt to spin the Basket. With the Brake Rods depressed, it should take very minimal force to spin the Basket. 2017 Extractor Corporation 11
If the Basket spins freely, the problem may be due to a loose wire or a broken motor component. Remove the end cap from the bottom of the motor to visually inspect the motor components for cracks, frayed wires and broken wires. If anything is found to be broken, contact Extractor Corporation for additional assistance or replacement parts. If the Basket does not spin freely or at all, the problem may be due to an obstruction within the unit or faulty motor bearings. Check for signs of an obstruction within the unit by gently pulling the Basket aside and, with a flash light, look down inside the unit for something wrapped around the Basket or Brake Disc (located around the bottom of the Basket). If foreign objects are found, try to pull them out with a long hook or other instrument. If the obstruction cannot be removed in this manner, the Top and Sub-Top may need to be removed to fully access the inside of the unit. Please refer to Page 15 in this manual for further instruction. If no signs of an obstruction can be seen, the issue may be faulty motor bearings. Please contact Extractor Corporation for additional troubleshooting regarding this issue. Problem: The unit is humming as soon as power is engaged and before the Lid is depressed. This could be caused by either a faulty timer or an over-adjustment on the Micro Switch. To test for a faulty timer in this instance, place the Lid in the open and upright position and use an A.C. voltmeter set to the appropriate range to check for power at the #4 (or COM) connection on the Timer. If there is power at the #4 (or COM) connection on the Timer with the Lid in the upright position, the Timer is faulty and should be replaced. To check the adjustment on the Micro Switch, please refer to Page 49 in this manual. Problem: The unit is leaking. The SUITMATE unit does not have any seals or gaskets that can wear or break down. Leaking is primarily caused by an obstruction within the interior drain channel, drain hose, or P-trap (if applicable). The interior drain channel is a two-inch U channel that runs around the perimeter of the interior of the unit. Check for an obstruction by gently pulling the Basket aside and, with a flash light, look down inside the unit for something blocking the drain channel or drain opening. If foreign objects are found, try to pull them out with a long hook or other instrument. If the obstruction cannot be removed in this manner, the Top and Sub-Top may need to be removed to fully access the inside of the unit. Please refer to Page 15 in this manual for further instruction. Problem: The GFCI is tripping off every time the unit is run. CAUTION! Make certain the main electrical power to the unit is turned off and locked out before beginning work on the SUITMATE unit. The SUITMATE unit should be connected to a 115-V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit. If the unit is connected on a circuit with other items or appliances, it is possible that the initial draw of the unit could be overloading the circuit causing the GFCI to trip off. If the SUITMATE unit is not on a dedicated circuit, switch it to a 115-V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit and verify that the problem is resolved. If the SUITMATE unit is already on a 115V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit, the GFCI may be faulty, have a loose connection, or there may be a short within the unit. Verify that all wires are securely connected on both the LINE and LOAD sides of the GFCI. If a loose connection is found, correct it, restore power and verify that the problem is resolved. 2017 Extractor Corporation 12
If a loose connection is not found or the GFCI still trips off, turn off the main electrical power to the unit and bypass the GFCI. Connect the unit direct to a ground wall circuit and see if the main circuit breaker trips off. If the main circuit breaker does not trip, the GFCI is most likely faulty and should be replaced. If the main circuit breaker does trip, there is probably a short within the unit. Please call Extractor Corporation for additional troubleshooting assistance. Problem: The GFCI is tripping off at random times, no specific pattern or reason. CAUTION! Make certain the main electrical power to the unit is turned off and locked out before beginning work on the SUITMATE unit. The SUITMATE unit should be connected to a 115-V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit. If the unit is connected on a circuit with other items or appliances, it is possible that at the random time when the unit is running at the same time as another appliance on the circuit, the circuit could become over loaded and cause the GFCI to trip off. If the SUITMATE unit is not on a dedicated circuit, switch it to a 115-V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit and verify that the problem is resolved. If the SUITMATE unit is already on a 115-V, 20-Amp, 60-Hz dedicated circuit, the GFCI may be faulty or have a loose connection. Verify that all wires are securely connected on both the LINE and LOAD sides of the GFCI. If a loose connection is found, correct it, restore power and verify that the problem is resolved. Problem: The Basket is still spinning when you lift the Lid. There is a problem with the Brakes. Please take the unit out of service immediately and contact Extractor Corporation. Problem: The unit will run but takes a long time to reset before being able to run again. This may indicate a faulty Timer, a faulty Motor Thermal Breaker, or an obstruction within the unit. To test for a faulty Timer, please follow the instructions on Page 47 for bypassing the timer. If the unit functions normally once the timer is bypassed, the timer should be replaced. If the unit takes more than 5 minutes to reset, there may be either an obstruction within the unit that is causing friction while the unit is running or a faulty Thermal Breaker. Check for signs of an obstruction within the unit by gently pulling the Basket aside and, with a flash light, look down inside the unit for something wrapped around the Basket or the Brake Disc (located around the bottom of the Basket). If foreign objects are found, try to pull them out with a long hook or other instrument. If the obstruction cannot be removed in this manner, the Top and Sub-Top may need to be removed to fully access the inside of the unit. Please refer to Page 15 in this manual for further instruction on removing these pieces. If no signs of an obstruction can ben seen, the issue could be a faulty Motor Thermal Breaker. Please contact Extractor Corporation for additional troubleshooting regarding this issue. Problem: The unit is making excessive noise when it is running. The patrons may not be operating the unit correctly. Test this by putting a swimsuit in the Basket and pushing it all the way down, making sure that it is evenly distributed in the bottom of the unit. Operate the unit. If the unit is still noisy under correct operation, attempt to run it empty. If the noise remains even with the unit being empty, it could indicate faulty motor bearings or worn out brakes.
